- A little teasing look at Chappie's Manhurin-built SIG SG 540 in .223 Rem on the 300m range.
Blokey likey. It's kinda the M16A1 of the SIG range :)
Also served as practice for working with a handheld Rode Wireless Go in an interview stick.

French SIG , Ian's jealous of you today lol
will we get a comparison video with the 540 and 550 side by side?
Its great to see these two fine gents enjoying themselves on a beautiful sunny day at the range shooting a semi auto rifle. Its what my dreams are made of.... (i live in Australia)😭
I read something in a book that I have from Small Arms of the World 1977 edition that the French Foreign Legion was considering this rifle for their Parachute Regiment. When the idea was dropped the only thing the Paratroopers got was their bayonets which they used as personal knives with their gear along with their issued FAMAS bayonets. The SIG bayonets for French issue are rare now and collectors item because many Legionaires took them home after faithful service. Very few made it on surplus here in the US. I only saw a few offered for sale on Shotgun News in the early 1990s when no one knew that the French even had these bayonets.

That looks like a really fun rifle
I liked the video. I own an original Swiss SIG SG540 and I’m very happy with it! It’s only hard to get stuff for it but I’ve found in the last few years the bayonet and an extra mag. I live in The Netherlands and think there are not many original SG540 left.
Ive never seen a metal SIG mag like that, neat!
Sweet recoil! Thanks Chappy Blokes!
Great rifle, gents. Thank you for the peek!
Carried a 551 on duty for three years before I became the special weapons coordinator at SIG. Without a doubt one of the finest battle rifle’s ever built.
"Schlock,Schlock" best bolt movement description ever.
Dang, these aren't available in the US either. Good luck to the Chap!
Nice! Yes the 550 is heavier than I would like it to be. This one looks like a great rifle, hope to see more of it.
Very nice! Manhurin quality as well!
It's nice to see a gun channel where
That's awesome. Need one
When i was in French Army, it was my gun !!! I used it in Djibouti in 1982
...and Ian has been one upped, let’s see his response.
Seen one marked .222 Rem. Interesting gun with even more interesting history. greets from Lithuania!
